    If you're regularly using skincare products at home, it can be confusing when the skin invariably becomes dry suddenly in the Winter season.
    Moreover, if you start seeing dryness, flakiness, scaliness, itchiness, maybe it's the transitional weather and not your products that are causing it. However, it's hard to pinpoint just one thing behind the dryness or other problems. 
    Here are 5 reasons why you could be facing dryness and flakiness in the Winter season:
    1. You're Still Using Lotion Instead Of A Proper MoisturiserYour go-to moisturiser does not work as effectively in the Winter. In the Winter, switch to cream instead of a lotion. 
    Lotions work best in warmer months and thick moisturisers are best for colder months. Another useful hack is to use the cream twice a day. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__318__
    Arata's hydrating face serum cream is good at combating excessive dryness in the Winter.

    If you're not moisturising daily, your skin will inevitably have flakiness, dryness among other issues. 

    It's important to set a time in the day when you moisturise.
    3. You're Moisturising At The Wrong TimeMoisturising at certain hours of the day benefits your skin more. For example, moisturising immediately after bathing has more benefits than other times of the day. 
    Make sure, you're setting up your skin routine accordingly.

    It's important to know what's inside the moisturiser. 

    The wrong ingredients could cause more harm than good and the right ingredients like skin-repairing ceramides fill in the cracks in the skin and help repair the skin. 
    Talk to your dermatologist, find what works for your skin and specifically buy those products then. 
    5. You're Using The Wrong Cleanser In The Shower © iStock
    While washing your face in the shower, avoid using soaps that have a relatively higher alkaline pH. 

    These can irritate the skin, and also make them immune to hydration which is not a good thing in the Winters.

    The buzzword for the first half of 2020 - Quarantine.
    The buzzword for the second half of 2020 - Boycott.
    We can't go a few days without seeing something - a movie, a company, a TV show - getting boycotted online for, more often than not, hurting religious sentiments. 
    Sure, it's pretty great that everyone has the access to the internet now and people can share their viewpoints unabashedly, but it's getting so toxic now that it's become a witch hunt for anything some people find mildly offensive.
    © NBC
    The worst part? Most of the time, the outrage is over literally nothing, it's just because people are getting more and more intolerant every day now.

    In the last 58 days, barely two months, we've witnessed nine major boycotts on Twitter and almost all of them could've been avoided easily.
    1. TIME - 24th September © TIME
    People joked about how the magazine TIME was being boycotted by the very people who had never read, and never had any intention of reading it.

    The boycott was a result of two reasons:
    Reason one - Bilkis dadi, the 82-year-old woman who sat in the harsh winters at Shaheen Bagh along with other protestors to peacefully fight for the future of minorities in India, was one of the people honoured.
    © TIME
    Reason two - PM Narendra Modi, who was also part of the list, did not get the review everyone had hoped for in the magazine.

    Modi is in @TIME magazines 100 most influential people of 2020. But did you see anyone tweet this? Here is why

    2. Mirzapur 2 - 7th OctoberOf course, this would get boycotted, just look at the cast!
    © Amazon Prime
    Right after the trailer for the second season of the hit show came out, a lot of people tried to boycott the show because of a problem with multiple stars of the show showing support for CAA protests last year.

    But, the hilarious part was that the boycott movement failed, for a change, as fans of the show were so eagerly waiting for it, they didn't care about anything else.

    3. Tanishq - 12th October © Tanishq
    The biggest boycott trend of all boycott trends, the entire 'boycott Tanishq' phenomenon became a movement of sorts, and not the good kind.

    Accusing the company of promoting 'Love Jihad', people were extremely upset about an ad that showed a Muslim family hosting a godh bharai for their Hindu bahu, saying it 'hurt religious sentiments'.
    So Hindutva bigots have called for a boycott of ⁦@TanishqJewelry⁩ for highlighting Hindu-Muslim unity through this beautiful ad. If Hindu-Muslim “ekatvam” irks them so much, why don’t they boycott the longest surviving symbol of Hindu-Muslim unity in the world -- India? pic.twitter.com/cV0LpWzjda

    4. Laxmii - 16th October © Fox star studios
    Well, the movie was called Laxmmi Bomb when the boycott started and the makers were even forced to change the name to Laxmii, because of the Karni Sena.

    Again, the movie apparently hurt religious sentiments, so it had to be punished. I still can't believe how quickly people turned against Akshay Kumar and that too after they declared the trailer to be a hit!
    The first problem people had is that the movie was about a possessed transwoman who had a Trishul in hand and went by the pseudonym Asif. 
    Secondly, people had a problem with 'love jihad', yet again, because Asif's girlfriend is Priya. Well, this is basically a repeat of the Tanishq controversy.
    What kind of culture this film industry promoting. #boycottbollywood #BoycottLaxmmiBomb pic.twitter.com/fLywqEYVE5

    5. Eros Now - 22nd OctoberFinally, a boycott trend that was actually valid. People got it at the fifth try, I'm so proud.
    Eros Now decided to wish everyone a happy Navratri in the worst possible way - by making sexually suggestive wishes.
    We must preserve cinema as a community viewing theatre experience,its more difficult to enthrall large section of audience than sexualise content for personal viewing, digitisation of art faces this major crisis, all streaming platforms are nothing but a porn hub.

    6. Tanishq, Again - 9th November © Tanishq
    Tanishq could not catch a break, I really do feel bad.

    The jewellery company came under fire again right before Diwali because they shared an ad that encouraged people to not burst firecrackers this year.
    I don't know when wanting to be able to actually breathe outside became so controversial, but it really did show how 'tolerant' this country is right now.
    Why should anyone advice Hindus how to celebrate Our Festivals?

    Companies must focus on selling their products, not lecture us to refrain from bursting Crackers.

    We will light lamps, distribute sweets and burst green crackers. Please join us. You will understand Ekatvam. https://t.co/EfmNNDXWFD

    7. Amazon - 10th November Hindu sentiments also matters @amazonIN #BoycottAmazon pic.twitter.com/g068jA7Mz6
    — True Indology (@AnkitAk379) November 10, 2020 Another trend that kind of makes sense. People found out that Amazon was selling a doormat that says Om and well, of course, it's not the best idea to sell something with a religious symbol that people put their feet on. 
    There were a few other products including swimsuits for both men and women with pictures of Hindu gods. Uh oh.

    8. Bingo - 19th November See how Ranveer Singh and bingo together make fun of SSR.
    Their tagline should be "Brand of India but not pride of India" #BoycottBingo#RepublicRoar4SSR pic.twitter.com/CJcSu7KeCP
    — DAYANAND BAIRAGI (@Imonly4sushant) November 19, 2020 The most senseless trend of this list just because of how unnecessary it is. A Bingo commercial, that was filmed last year, became a target just a couple of days ago because people thought the ad was mocking Sushant Singh Rajput. 
    Just because an ad mentioned 'photon' doesn't mean they're talking about SSR. 
    But, at least, his fans came in support and rubbished the stupid trend. 
    See, I am an SSR fan.
    But if u think using word photon here is disrespectful for him... aren't u to immature??
    And Even if u r relating them - Had it been some veteran actor.. we would have considered this as a tribute kind of thing.
    So, why not for SSR??

    9. Zomato - 19th NovemberHi Swara, please note, we don’t endorse any content except our own. That being said, we are looking into this.
    — zomato care (@zomatocare) November 18, 2020
    Lastly, we have Swara Bhaskar on the list. The other day she tagged Zomato in a tweet and asked the company to stop the hate and questioned why they were still advertising with Republic TV. 
    An official Zomato account replied that will look into the query, and well, all hell broke loose. 
    People threatened to boycott the company, and eventually did, because they 'sided' with Swara Bhaskar. 
    YOUR TIME IS UP ZOMATO. UNINSTALLED.

    Well, we still have another month to go for 2020 to finally come to an end, think a few more 'boycotts' are in store for us?

    Most of us end up assuming that mental health is always about disorders and illnesses like depression and anxiety. However, this is not always true. 

    Like physical health, mental health is something that needs constant check ins and includes a lot of big and small aspects. 
    We make sure that our physical health is good by eating healthy and exercising regularly. Similarly, we also need to take care of our mental health by having a proper self-care routine. 
    It’s important to make at least some of these activities a regular part of your life.

    As we sit back on a chilly Saturday morning, sipping on a warm cup of tea, all cosied up in our thick blankets with our geysers switched on to get piping hot water on demand, a video has surfaced on the internet that shows what it takes for us, the common people of India, to be able to afford all these luxuries.
    Undefeatable...Unshakeable

    — Major Surendra Poonia (@MajorPoonia) November 21, 2020
    This video, shared by Special Forces Veteran Major Surendra Poonia on Twitter is reportedly of Ladakh in which one of the jawans of the Indian Army can be seen on duty, in what can only be described as unbelievably extreme weather conditions.
    With the place absolutely submerged in snow, the soldier in black uniform is stationed to guard a spot with nothing but a rifle in his hands and the sheer resolve to not move away until he receives further instructions from his Commanding Officer.

    Apart from the cruelly-low temperatures and all the snow, it is also the wind that makes the surroundings way colder than it would have been without the wind. 

    Indians came together in hailing the soldier and all the other defence personnel who have dedicated their lives to protect the integrity of the nation and fight off terror and invaders at the borders.
    Pranams to those great souls standing in for the peace of all of us they stand for a purpose not knowing if they will live the next minite..and stand beyond all the unwanted political fights the clowns have here..

    — Hari Shankar Singh Kandari 🇮🇳 (@hsskindia) November 21, 2020 “Cost of freedom and democracy,” indeed. 
    Now, to those who feel that nobody forced these men to become soldiers and say that they could have been anything else but chose to put their lives on the line, I get your point, but the fact that they are willing to sacrifice themselves so that we can peacefully sleep at night is worth acknowledging and showing respect towards. 
    You don’t have to go out and start shouting slogans in favour of our soldiers unnecessarily, but you must realise the value of the lavishness with which you can afford to live your lives.  
    There is someone who has not even met you and has no idea who you are, but is still ready to die for you in a heartbeat.

    Real patriotism isn’t when you go on live television and shout your lungs out “Bharat Mata Ki Jai”. As George Orwell once said “By 'patriotism' I mean devotion to a particular place and a particular way of life, which one believes to be the best in the world but has no wish to force upon other people.”  

    There is no better symbol of real patriotism than this soldier, standing his ground against nature and those who wish to take away this country’s dignity.

    If you’ve been wondering whether your gaming PC can handle Cyberpunk 2077 then we’ve got some good news for you. While the game does look quite futuristic, it doesn’t really require a futuristic machine to run. The game has been in development for almost eight years and it has been made with keeping the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One in mind as well. In fact, ironing out stability issues is partly the reason why the game has been delayed to December 10th. 
    © Reddit-u_Yeettdydu
    Having said that, the lowest common denominator here happens to be the PS4 and Xbox One consoles which means the game will also be able to run on lower-powered hardware for gaming PCs. CD Projekt Red's UK Head of Communication and Night City Wire Host Hollie Bennett announced the minimum and recommended PC specifications for the upcoming role-playing game and it looks like the developers do not want to leave anybody behind. 
    © Reddit - u_marcclem
    The game will take at least 70GB of storage and we would recommend running the game on an SSD if you want faster loading times. If you are uncertain as to whether your PC will be able to play the game; here are the minimum and recommended requirements for Cyberpunk 2077 according to CD Projekt Red:
    MINIMUM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:
    OS: 64-Bit Windows 7 or 64-Bit 10
    DirectX Version: DirectX 12

    Processor: Intel Core i5-3570K or AMD FX-8310
    Memory: 8 GB RAM
    Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 or AMD Radeon RX 470
    Storage: 70 GB HDD (SSD recommended)
    RECOMMENDED SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:
    OS: 64-Bit Windows 10
    DirectX Version: DirectX 12
    Processor: Intel Core i7-4790 or AMD Ryzen 3 3200G
    Memory: 12 GB RAM
    Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 or AMD Radeon R9 Fury
    Storage: 70 GB SSD
    Cyberpunk 2077 is expected to be a large open-world game that will be fairly detailed and these requirements are quite reassuring. You will need at least an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 or AMD Radeon RX 470 which launched seven and four years ago respectively. 
    © CD Projekt Red
    While these are the minimum requirements, do not expect the game to look as good as you may have seen in the previews. CD Projekt Red recommends using at least an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 or AMD Radeon R9 Fury which launched four and five years ago respectively. The case remains the same for the minimum and recommended processor to run this game as the game can run with older CPUs such as Intel Core i7-4790, Intel Core i5-3570K, AMD FX-8310, AMD Ryzen 3 3200G or above. 
    You will definitely need the recommended specifications or better to get the best experience with the game even though the minimum requirements are quite low. If you are an RTX GPU user, you can also take advantage of ray-tracing effects and better resolutions on PC.  
    Cyberpunk 2077 is expected to release on December 10th for the Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC. Next-generation upgrades for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series are expected soon after with better optimisations for the new hardware. If you are looking to get Cyberpunk 2077 in India, we recommend getting it from GTS as you also get a free T-Shirt with every pre-order.

    Who doesn’t like spending a good weekend with their best buddies, with some chakna and drinks? Even the people who don’t drink alcohol will agree with the fact that drinks make everything so much more fun! 

    Even for the non-drinkers, watching their drunk friends do the weirdest things is the highlight of the evening.
    However, it doesn’t really take much time for a fun night to turn into a total disaster. Incidents like drunk dialing the ex, picking fights and getting sick in front of your crush are pretty embarrassing to bear the next day.
    It's about time you realised that your drinking habits are not as efficient as you think. Take it from the people who have been there, such disasters can easily be avoided. 
    How? Well, by trying not to make these mistakes!

Some people get headaches when they drink wine and some others always throw up when they drink whiskey. Make sure to do your research and know what works best for you! 
    Now you know how to hold your liquor and enjoy it to the fullest!

    One of the biggest talking points through the duration of the Indian Premier League 2020 was Mumbai Indians player Suryakumar Yadav and his career trajectory, after being one of the most successful batsmen this season and playing some brilliant domestic cricket before the T20 tournament began.
    Yadav, 30, has had some good IPL seasons before but this year, he took his performance to the next level and even helped the squad win some crucial matches in the absence of his skipper Rohit Sharma a couple of times. 
    View this post on Instagram
    He even managed to stand his ground against world-class sledger and arguably the most aggressive cricketer in the world, Virat Kohli when the latter tried to get under his skin during a match between MI and Royal Challengers Bangalore. 
    Watching the cricketer perform at such a high level consistently, the fans of the Indian cricket team were looking forward to the Mumbai-athlete to play in national colours in the upcoming tour of Australia.  
    © Twitter/ESPNcricinfo
    But SKY was self-admittedly shocked when he didn’t get the call.  

    In an interview with Hindustan Times, Yadav addressed two major takeaways from IPL Season 13 - His banter with Indian captain Virat Kohli and the disappointment of not getting selected in the national team despite having a breakthrough season.
    On Rivalry Against Virat Kohli:
    In yesterday match, Kohli came to sledge #SuryakumarYadav during the break and surya left like a gentleman, such a shameful act by virat kohli,didn't expect this from a batsman like virat#SuryakumarYadav #MIvsRCB #BCCIpolitics pic.twitter.com/AVjMN8ZNNX
    — 🆁🆃🅽🅳🅴🅴 🅶🆄🆃 (@rkgupta7257) October 29, 2020
    “It was all very instinctive. Virat Kohli is a huge cricketing figure and he plays the game very aggressively. It was an important game for both teams and whatever happened, it did during the game. After the game, we laughed about it and he congratulated me on my batting. Virat’s brand of cricket is top class and the way he dominates world cricket is just amazing. I too look up to him. In the end, it was great to win the game.” On Getting Snubbed Before Australia Tour: 
    No statements for not selecting.
    No celebration after scoring fifty.

    He decided to bat do the talking in the middle and scored unbeaten 79 runs from 43 balls including 10 fours & 3 sixes while chasing 164 runs against RCB. Take a bow, Suryakumar - one of the best knock. pic.twitter.com/iocfZ37SGO
    — Johns. (@CricCrazyJohns) October 28, 2020
    “Frankly, I was expecting to be selected this time. I was a bit disappointed when I found my name missing. I couldn’t even train that day and it was difficult to take my mind off from that dejection. Even Rohit (Sharma) asked me if I was disappointed and I told him I was. But never mind. I will wait for my chances. There is a lot of time to show my cricket abilities and make my case stronger for a national call-up. I hope I can score big in domestic games and then do well in the next IPL to catch the attention of the selectors.”
